Definitions

  • FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional assembly view of the differential drive of FIG. 5.
  • the drive chain 41 engages a sprocket gear 42 formed on the outer periphery of the coaster brake 31 which is joumalled in the forward portion of the central housing 21.
  • a secondary drive chain 43 engages sprockets 44 and 45 respectively of the differential apparatus 28 and formed on the outer periphery of the coaster brake 31.
  • Motive power is then transmitted through the half-shaft rear axles 24 journalled in the rear axle housings 22 to the spaced rear wheels 23 carried on the outer ends of the axles 24 and secured thereto by the nuts 46.
  • drive chain sprocket means for transmitting motive and braking power from the pedal crank of said bicycle to said coaster brake means and from said coaster brake means to said differential means, said elements constituting a unitary drive train attachment for converting a bicycle to a tricycle by attaching said housing to said rear fork.
